Five things set the number.

Stall count. Striping is priced per stall, and published Los Angeles rates for a restripe run $5 to $20 each. The count comes off the aerial, so it is known before anyone talks to you.

Restripe or new layout. Painting over the lines that exist is the low end. Blacking out an old pattern and laying a new one is more work and more paint, and it is what a lot needs when the accessible stalls were never right or the owner wants more stalls out of the same asphalt.

Accessible stalls. Each one is a stall, a hatched access aisle, a symbol and a sign, so it is priced on its own at $50 to $150. The California Building Code sets how many a lot needs by size. The table on the right has the minimums.

Curb and stencils. Fire lane red curb runs $2 to $4.5 per foot. Arrows, stop bars, crosswalks and loading zones are priced per stencil. They show up as their own lines on the quote. There is a whole page on fire lanes.

Mobilization. Getting a crew and a striper to the lot, often at night so the lot stays open, is a flat $150 to $500. It is why a tiny lot costs more per stall than a big one.

Condition moves the number inside those ranges. Faded lines take one coat; a lot that was never striped or needs blackout takes more. Oil spots and cracks are not striping problems, but they are why a striping quote often carries a sealcoat option.

Questions about the number.

Why is there a range and not a price?

Because the number depends on the lot: how many stalls, whether old lines need blackout, how many accessible stalls the code requires, how much curb is fire lane, and whether the crew works at night. Published ranges are what Los Angeles contractors show on their own pages. Your number comes from counting your lot.

What is the difference between a restripe and a new layout?

A restripe paints over the existing lines where they are. A new layout blacks out the old lines and paints a new pattern, which can add stalls or fix an accessible stall that never met the code. A new layout costs more because of the blackout and the layout work.

Do I have to add accessible stalls?

The California Building Code sets a minimum count of accessible stalls by lot size, and a lot that is restriped is expected to meet it. The count is in the table on this page. The written quote lists them as their own line so you can see exactly what they cost.

How is the count made without a visit?

From the aerial image at a known scale. Stalls, aisles, fire lane feet and paved area are measured on it. One or two photos settle condition, which the aerial cannot show: faded paint, oil spots, cracks.
